Gene Roddenberry designed Star Trek to depict a future in which racial and gender equality were the norm. Not only did he give his ship had a diverse crew, but he fought for the alien character, Spock, as a constant reminder of the variety of life and of the diversity of thought.

I would've loved to do something like this with my Scouts!
Looking for a group experience that’s genuinely memorable?
Sleep inside Colchester Castle with an overnight experience designed for schools, clubs, and organised children’s groups. Expect exclusive access, guided activities, and a night spent inside the Castle itself.

Visiting the excellent Dicket Mead #Roman villa bathhouse beneath the busy A1(M) in Welwyn, Hertfordshire with Kris Lockyear @welwynarchsoc.bsky.social
Can almost touch the underfloor heating...
Time for a bit of long distance pilae-prodding? (apologies, that sounds sooo wrong 😬)

This is the one life we have. So how can we make the most of it and support other people to do the same? Check out our wonderful animation with @profaliceroberts.bsky.social on the humanist approach to life. understandinghumanism.org.uk/res_films/on...
One Life, Live It Well: watch our new animation narrated by Alice Roberts
'Life is like a piece of string. It has a beginning and an end. We don't get much say about that. But we can make choices about the bit in between. We have the freedom to shape our own lives.'

Not keen on the bullfighting that still goes on, but site's a reminder that after bullfighting season in 1888 Van Gogh painted the crowds at the Arena from memory while living in nearby Yellow House w Gaugin.

The exposed chamber of a Neolithic passage tomb, with a second cairn topped by an OS pillar in the background.
These are two of the 11 recorded passage tombs in the Dublin Mountains. The uplands south of the capital are a significant Neolithic landscape.

Vessels such as this were used in drinking parties. Since they didn't have a base, their contents had to be consumed before the vessel could be put down
